Emergency Eye Care

What Is Emergency Eyecare?

Emergency eyecare services help people recover from traumatic emergencies to the eye or help treat emergency medical issues. You should seek emergency eyecare services if you notice any sudden changes in vision, eye pain, or traumatic injuries to the eye.

Other reasons to seek emergency eyecare include:

  • Eye infections that are severe, such as conjunctivitis
  • Bruising or bleeding in or around the eye
  • Sudden eye pain and other pain such as headaches
  • Sudden blurry or double vision
  • Foreign debris on the eye
  • Detached retina 
  • Sudden increase in floaters

If you're still unsure whether you need to be seen by an optometrist on our team, you can visit one for help rather than wait for your eye emergency to get worse. 

How Can an Optometrist Help Me?

An optometrist on our team can determine if there are any injuries to the eye that can lead to complications. He will also determine if another underlying illness, such as glaucoma, might be contributing to your current eye emergency.

An eye care specialist on our team may conduct an eye exam and vision tests to determine how severe your eye disorder or emergency is. If needed, they may also dilate your eye so they can take a deeper look inside of your eye.

Depending on the type of eyecare emergency you are experiencing, we can alleviate your symptoms through medication, or other emergency treatments.
